Looks like you've got a lot of people willing out help out. if you're still not up to the 30-35 threshold I'd be happy to send along some too. It would all be US, but better than nothing, right?

Nice review of this menu Unmaned! This one really IS a puzzler. It's not unusual to find odd combinations that don't seem to make much sense, but this one really takes the cake! "Taco Meat" that really can't be used in the form of a taco without making a huge mess. And that strange combo of Peanut B...

So, I'm not sure where to look for a pretty specific item. And I'm not sure if I should be posting this here or in the Members' Forum or elsewhere. Anyway, I'm looking for a few pouches of MRE Corn. Not Corn Nuts (Toasted Corn Kernels) or Cornbread or Cornbread Stuffing. Just plain old Corn (or as i...

Wow, how great was that?!? Very cool video, and very awesome art! My only complaint? ...Now I can't get that song out of my head!

Good point Rocky. It's something we've been waiting for for SOOOO long that it can't possibly live up to the hype and the legend, but I'm definitely looking forward to when it finally happens! I'm keeping my expectations pretty low. It would seem like this will be a bit of a hit when it finally arri...

That MRE pizza was a trip - it woulda been much better with real meat and not soy meat. Perhaps it was for storage/cost reasons. I forgot that it had soy "meat"! What a waste of something we've been waiting so long for. Simply crazy. I hope our government will step up and at least put some cheap pe...

What a classic! I don't think I saw this when it aired, but it became etched in my mind when old SNL episodes were repackaged and put into syndication in the 80s. In 2000 my wife (girlfriend at the time) and I traveled to Chicago for a wedding. While there we walked all around the downtown area, saw...

Very cool Art! I am always appreciative of a sale! Thanks for letting us know (and for the additional 10% discount as well!).

Hey battlemaster, it seems like you've gotten quite a few good responses/explanations. I'll put my two cents in as well. Forgive me for repeating what others have already said. I believe that the reason we mainly (only?) see MREs/TOTMs/MCWs/LRPs and the like is because they're produced in such large numbers (especially MRES). And MREs are handed out during times of natural disaster, which puts them right into the hands of civilians without having to purchase them secondhand. Most of the other rations are produced in such small quantities (like the Passover meals which are only produced around the time of Passover). They're probably out there, but in very small quantities and maybe owned by people who don't do reviews (or collectors who want to keep them intact because of their rarity). All that being said, it's interesting to see some of these "rare" items suddenly become easy to find (even if only for a short time), like HDRs and Halal MREs). Maybe the same thing will eventually happen with some of the other rations? We can hope!

I have reviewed a partial Kosher for Passover meal that was given to me by BlackDogBob (It's only the accessory pack portion, but still pretty interesting. Here it is if you want to check it out:


And also, while I've never gotten my hands on any complete UGR meals, I DID do a review of two UGR trays last year. For a while they were kind of easy to find (The Epicenter used to sell them and made a bunch of reviews of them), but seem to have dried up for whatever reason. I have a couple more that I need to review, but here's the video I made last year if you want to see that as well:

So I'm reading this post and suddenly I'm getting very hungry and having a hankering for some Ellio's frozen pizza! I'm guessing that that is the closest proximity to what MRE pizza is going to taste like. Steve, I know you've had the Norwegian one, correct? Would you say it's similar to Ellio's? I'...
